Situated
just off the busy A55 at Alltami near Mold, AH Plant Hire continues
to make a significant investment in choosing Volvo compact excavators
having just added a further nine machines to its fleet.
Managing Director
Andrew Heaton has continued to develop and
expand his hire business throughout the north west of England and
north Wales by adding a further nine Volvo compact excavators to his
rental fleet and bringing the total of Volvo machines to thirty. In
all, the recent package includes four EC17C's (1.7 tonnes), two
EC27C's (2.7 Tonnes), two ECR58D's and an ECR88. And Andrew
Heaton is certainly a fan of the larger machines; "We were one of
the first in the north-west to find a niche in the hire market for
the Volvo EC55 five and a half tonne model and the reduced swing
variant has become a firm favourite with our customers since it was
first introduced," he comments. "The machines have proved
reliable and have stood the test of time so together with a
competitive package on offer from Seddons we decided to increment our
fleet with more of the Volvo brand."
All nine
machines have undergone local modifications by AH Plant's engineers
with the addition of hydraulic quick hitches and vandal guards before
joining the hire fleet. "Besides the machine reliability, one of
the key reasons why we continue to invest in Volvo utility equipment
is the first class after sales support we receive from Seddons and
indeed from Volvo themselves," continues Mr Heaton.
AH Plant Hire is
ideally situated just off the A55 North Wales express way close to
Queensferry. The business is supported by two plant delivery
vehicles, a complement of four engineers and an administrator.
